This article explains how to use Conditions to control when questions, sections, and subsections appear in your assessment based on previously selected answers.
Conditions let you show or hide questions, sections, and subsections based on how a respondent has answered previous questions. If no conditions are set, the item will always appear.
Where to Find Conditions
Where you configure conditions depends on the item type:
-
Questions: Open the Question dialog and go to the Conditions tab.
-
Sections and Subsections: Open the Section or Subsection dialog and go to the Options tab.
AND vs OR Logic
Each condition record can include up to 5 previous answers. All answers within a single condition record must have been selected for the item to appear. This is AND logic.
To create OR logic, use the Add New link to add multiple condition records for the same item. The item will appear if any of the condition records are satisfied.
You can also combine both. For example, a question could be set to appear when:
- Answer A and Answer B are both selected, or
- Answer A and Answer C are both selected
Conditional Reporting
Tip: If you are making entire sections or subsections conditional, you may also need to make parts of your report conditional on whether there are any score records for that section, subsection, or segmentation. This is done using merge strings to specify the conditional start and end points.
For full instructions, see Conditional Parts of the Report.
